Debugging Problem Overview


How can I jump to the next breakpoint in IntelliJ, as I can in Visual Studio by pressing F5?

Debugging Solutions


Solution 1 - Debugging

While in debug mode, and between two breakpoints, hit the F9 key.

Solution 2 - Debugging

AFAIK, there is no direct F5 like in Visual Studio to jump to the next breakpoint without cursor pointing. The closest is the ALT+F9 that jumps to the cursor.

For quick reference, the most used debugging keyboard shortcuts are:

  • F8 Step over
  • F7 Step into
  • Shift + F7 Smart step into
  • Shift + F8 Step out
  • Alt + F9 Run to cursor
  • Alt + F8 Evaluate expression
  • F9 (Mac: Cmd + ALT + R) Resume program
  • Ctrl + F8 (Mac: Cmd + F8) Toggle breakpoint
  • Ctrl + Shift + F8 (Mac: Cmd + Shift + F8) View breakpoints

To note that there are some keyboard shortcut differences between Mac and Win/Linux. Full references to PDF cheatsheets below.

Solution 3 - Debugging

In Windows use F9 key to move next debug
